Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Inside the luxurious villa, a secretary wearing glasses bowed slightly to the experienced investigation team leader, a trace of bitterness on his face. ”Our master’s health has not been good since the young lady passed away. I can only handle all matters with you on his behalf. Please understand.”

Officer Zhang stood by the spiral staircase, his gaze shifting slightly upward. His solemn eyes swept over the secretary before he gave a slight nod. ”Alright, these are our credentials.”

He followed the secretary to sit on the sofa, his expression grave as he scrutinized the man before him. Then he spoke, ”May I ask—”

”What kind of person do you think Shu Yuxiu is?”

A practiced, artificial smile remained on the secretary’s face as he looked at the imposing Officer Zhang before him. His tone was utterly calm, devoid of any fluctuation, as if rehearsed countless times—

The camera circled between the two of them, revealing the somewhat dimly lit villa living room before retreating to a hidden corner, allowing the scene to gradually darken.

Only the secretary’s voice, unhurried and steady, rang out. ”You’d better...”

”Be careful of Shu Yuxiu.”

...

At the beginning of the story, the investigation team came to investigate the suspect Shu Yuxiu regarding certain cases, suspecting he was the real killer who murdered his wife.But watching the man in the interrogation room and listening to his self-narrated rags-to-riches story and his past with his beloved Qi Xinyue, the viewers, along with the investigation team, found their train of thought gradually veering off course.

Without a doubt, Shu Yuxiu was a very hardworking man with great luck. He always managed to seize opportunities at the right moment while also garnering the attention and affection of others.

He went from an ordinary car mechanic to a somewhat well-known race car driver. Then, a few years later, he became a businessman with modest assets. During a world tour, he met the daughter of an official family, Qi Xinyue. Finally, leveraging the Qi family’s influence in both official circles and the business world, he gradually gained a foothold, established the largest local chamber of commerce, and obtained an official title within the government.

His rags-to-riches story could be described as a feel-good novel.

Not only did the investigation team members express deep emotion over this, even the viewers watching up to this point couldn’t help but feel the same urge.

Off-screen, Tiger Brother watched this plot development with great interest, thoughtfully stroking his chin.

Did Shu Yuxiu cheat? How could everything go so smoothly? Reaching his current status meant he had achieved the pinnacle of both career and love in life.

If he hadn’t met Qi Xinyue and embarked on this dedicated romantic storyline, Tiger Brother would have almost suspected that the upcoming scenes for Shu Yuxiu would definitely involve being surrounded by beauties and a constantly expanding harem, with the story directly veering into web novel Dragon Pride Heaven territory.

However, judging by the trailer’s plot, Director Ning obviously wouldn’t let the story take that direction—

Tiger Brother looked at Xiao He, who played Shu Yuxiu on screen, and his thoughts strayed for a moment.

It had to be admitted that with a face like that and such a clear mind, almost no one would question Shu Yuxiu’s success.

And Xiao He’s face truly maximized Shu Yuxiu’s personal charisma.

Watching Shu Yuxiu kneel down to sweetly propose to Qi Xinyue, Tiger Brother let out a sigh of admiration.

If he were the female lead Qi Xinyue, facing such a deeply affectionate face, he wouldn’t be able to resist either!

Some people are just born to eat this rice! It’s something you can’t envy!

-

The plot took a sharp turn after the proposal. Within a few years, Qi Xinyue passed away due to illness. Shu Yuxiu was utterly grief-stricken, but what he never expected was that what awaited him next was an investigation by the police.

Thus, the timeline returned to the interrogation at the beginning. Despite Shu Yuxiu’s strenuous efforts to explain his situation, the police remained skeptical.

Shu Yuxiu reminded the investigation team leader more than once that the police might also have been deceived. Someone wanted to use them as a knife to kill, taking this opportunity to deliberately frame and target him. He had always been innocent.

His relationship with his beloved was good, their bond intimate. How could her death possibly be his doing?

Moreover, Qi Xinyue died from a normal illness, with complete medical examination proof. Everything could be inspected by the police from start to finish to prove his innocence.

Those rumors linking his beloved’s death to him were deliberate targeting!

And because of Shu Yuxiu’s testimony, a significant rift emerged within the investigation team.

Some didn’t believe Shu Yuxiu killed his wife, while others felt Shu Yuxiu’s testimony was too perfect, which in itself was a flaw that increased his own suspicion.

Nevertheless, their investigation still reached a deadlock.

Actually, seeing this far, Tiger Brother already suspected Shu Yuxiu.

After all, according to the laws of suspense, a testimony that is flawless from the start often turns out to be the killer’s lie in the later stages.

Sure enough, just as Shu Yuxiu sat in the interrogation room, leisurely tapping the tabletop, Qi Xinyue’s father, Qi Baishan, sent his secretary to deliver a document.

When he saw the document’s contents, Officer Zhang in charge of the investigation narrowed his eyes and swept a very forceful gaze toward the secretary before him. ”Why are you giving us such an important document only now?”

The secretary merely smiled and silently left the investigation team.

The viewers couldn’t help but want to urge the camera to film the contents of the document, but as if deliberately creating suspense, just as the camera was about to land on the document’s contents, Officer Zhang directly snapped it shut with a *pa*.

He looked at the other members of the investigation team, his eyes filled with a strong desire to win, a smile appearing on his face. ”The fox’s tail is finally showing.”

Facing the expectant gazes of his team members, Officer Zhang picked up the notebook from the chair and strode toward the interrogation room—”Let’s go, interrogate Shu Yuxiu again!”

In the screening hall, bright light illuminated the viewers’ faces and also illuminated the investigation team’s hope. All the past experiences and suspicious points in Shu Yuxiu’s history were deduced by Officer Zhang.

When Officer Zhang slapped a person’s photo onto the table, Shu Yuxiu’s expression finally underwent a subtle change, but it quickly returned to calm.

Under Officer Zhang’s suspicious gaze, he let out a light, unhurried chuckle, lazily leaning back. His face still carried a touch of sorrow, but his voice gained a hint of coldness.

”Zhu Penglin? Just a friend from the past.”

”But he’s dead.”

”I know. I collected the body.”

”What happened between you back then?”

”An accidental car crash, so he died.”

”What did you do in it?”

”What does it have to do with me?”

”Does it have nothing to do with you?”

Officer Zhang stared straight at Shu Yuxiu’s face, while Shu Yuxiu also raised his head, the corners of his mouth imperceptibly lifting by a few pixels, giving people a sinister, almost-smiling-not-smiling feeling.

It was inexplicably chilling.

Their gazes met across the space, and in that moment, they completely understood each other’s tenacity.

Officer Zhang sat back in his chair, his burning gaze fixed on the man before him, his tone firm and serious. ”You’re lying.”

Shu Yuxiu didn’t answer. He just casually put down his crossed leg, placed his hands together on the table, his eyes devoid of any trace of a smile. ”I never lie.”

He tilted his head slightly, looking calmly at Officer Zhang before him. Half of his handsome face was shrouded in shadow, making his thoughts unfathomable.

”It’s just that you all prefer to believe what you’re willing to believe.”

”For example, right now, are you willing to believe what I’m saying?”

Officer Zhang’s fingers tightened slightly.

Shu Yuxiu gave a soft, knowing chuckle.

—Perhaps at this moment, the story of a con man truly began.
